Would this not be an appropriate use for packages?  If one creates a
 package for every installed port on the "host" system, then one simply
 installs the package on the target system.

Yes, that's exactly what I need (the same functionality as "pkg_create
-b" + install on the other system), only without the actual package
file being created. Pipes would also be acceptable (piping the output
of pkg_create from one machine to the other, etc).

Too bad you cannot accept the package file. If pkg_create would accept a - instead of specifying the output tarball, then one could do some foo with nc, i.e.,

target# nc -l 1234 | tar -xf -
source# pkg_create -b mypackage - | nc target 1234
